Genuitec, LLC, a founding and strategic member of the Eclipse Foundation, has announced the immediate availability of Pulse 3.0 – the unbreakable, cross-enterprise life cycle management platform. Pulse gives global corporations a less expensive but powerful solution for smarter software delivery across teams and to end-users, leading many enterprise clients to even look at Pulse as a replacement for IBM’s Jazz technologies.

The release includes Genuitec's innovative, interactive dashboard that allows software developers, system engineers and architects to easily synchronize the entire process of software creation, management and delivery to end-users. For business staff and management personnel, the dashboard provides simple methods to gain a clear understanding of the status of software projects (for reporting and budgetary insight), while streamlining business results and expectations.

“Pulse gives the enterprise a significant competitive advantage as a proven, unbreakable software delivery mechanism. Pulse easily scales to power the delivery of software for some of the most respected, global corporations,” said Tim Webb, Pulse project manager at Genuitec. “Through innovative collaboration technologies, Pulse allows software development teams to coordinate their efforts and understand projects - in real time - with unmatched ease and visibility. Developers can even contribute code simultaneously on projects without the need to leave the Pulse environment.”

Pulse is also introducing the ability to allow authorized team members to contribute to one or more projects that are standardized and shared, thereby making it easier for teams to collaborate - instead of one user always assigned as the “Profile Czar” dictating the team's software setup and then sending along requirements. With a single mouse click, developers can utilize advanced functionality allowing them to manage update preferences, summaries, workspace promotions and more across their teams.

Additionally, software administrators have the ability to set permissions and restrictions on what projects users can access, in which workspaces they can operate and who has access to certain folders. This insight allows for easy tie-ins with existing corporate security and access systems.

“Businesses today are smarter at cutting back on unnecessary costs as a symptom of the current economic environment; those businesses that become more efficient will succeed and grow as the economy rights itself,” said Todd Williams, vice president of technology at Genuitec. “Our customers have realized the value of Pulse in this context, as it provides a real-time view into the software development process and full control from conception to end-user delivery.”

Free for individual users, Pulse boasts the most flexible Eclipse software profiles on the market – even managing Eclipse behind corporate firewalls (including “in-house” Eclipse tooling that you don’t want the public to see).

Pulse 3.0 Community Edition is a free service, where Pulse 3.0 Freelance Team Edition is a value-add service allowing users to share their profiles and environment settings priced at $6 per month per user or $60/year, and is available for a free 30-day trial.
